Pomona Drawing Bench

Tasked with creating a drawing bench for the students at the Pomona College Studio Art Hall, the Objects Workshop threw out the worst part of most drawing benches, the uncomfortable flat seat. We replaced it with a laminated plywood structure that holds a movable tractor-style seat. A collaboration with sculpture professor Michael O’Malley, the bench itself became part of the sculpture curriculum as the students helped to assemble and finish the drawing benches.
